This study explains the role of coagulation in membrane filtration of wastewater for reuse. For this purpose, a coagulation–ultrafiltration (UF) membrane system was used to treat secondary effluent from a nearby wastewater treatment plant using a rotating biological contactor. The study proceeded wi

A landfill leachate treatment plant (LLTP) in Korea was retrofitted to improve treatment efficiency by using integrated membrane process that is composed of membrane bioreactor (MBR) and reverse osmosis (RO) process. In general, proper treatment of landfill leachate is difficult for its refractory c

A performance of an energy-efficient reverse osmosis (RO) system for seawater desalination was evaluated. The evaluation focused on energy saving performance of the RO system. The strategy adopted was to induce high recovery (50%) through the pressure increase. For this purpose, a pilot-scale RO pla
